I understand what you are saying, but my reactions are mainly the feelings I post. I try not to share these feelings with my W or the kids. I am always loving to my kids but it is hard for me to accept the fact that they like this guy. I never badmouth him...I usually just don't want to talk about him. I have a lot of anger which I vent here, which I thank God for this place. It has really helped because I have so few people I can really talk to. Most people don't really understand because they haven't been in our sitch. I do have trouble showing love for my W though. I try to be nice but every time we talk she talks about selling the house, or paying her money, or something she doesn't like about me. She is back on the "I am stealing her family" biz again. I have to ask for opinions on this one. I have been friends with my brother in laws longer than I have my wife. Two of us worked together at 16 and my other BIL worked with me for the past two years. I have been getting invited to family functions still(bdays, holidays) and I have gone. My W skipped New years and Christmas Eve. She came to Thanksgiving and we both attended two recent Bdays. She is angry that I am not turning down the invites. I am actually closer with her family than my own. Is she right? I mean, her entire family is upset about the whole thing. They don't like the OM and have taken side with me in a way. I don't really talk with them about our sitch but they have been very understanding and loving towards me. It's not like my W and I don't get along at the get togethers...but she complained to me about it today. So please let me know what you think....
